2008 Lueria Grand Vital 91 Points
Israel, Galilee, Upper Galilee
Intense secondary ripe fruity-cherry aroma with coffee-smoky notes.
Full bodied, soft tannins, high acidity level, good harmony, well balanced, though lacks some structure. Good value for money. Drink now.
Pleasant ripe fruity aftertaste.
